Act Fifty-Four: The Last Line of Defense

Wei Mou's words were transmitted through the walkie-talkie to the five pillboxes where the company was located. They are already on the string, ready to go. After hearing the order of the company commander, the first round of shelling flew out in less than a second.

In a defensive bunker in the rear, the battalion commander, who was pouring wine to suppress the alarm, shook his hand from the sound of artillery, and the wine in the bottle was spilled.

The battalion commander, who thought it was an enemy attack, hurriedly covered his head, half-squatted down, and wanted to run deep in the bunker. Finished! Finished! The enemy is attacking! I'm going to get out of here right now!

It took two steps before the battalion commander reacted. After all, he also graduated from the military academy, and the battalion commander immediately understood that the sound of artillery came from the enemy position, that is, someone fired artillery!

After a while, the arrival of the herald confirmed the battalion commander's conjecture.

"Battalion commander, Company Commander Wei Mou has opened fire." A diminutive herald ran over in a panic, apparently a close associate of the battalion commander who had come to monitor the battalion's junior commander.

The battalion commander was furious when he heard it, this Wei Mou is not a big official, and he is not small. He picked up the phone angrily, ready to scold Wei Moudun, but after thinking about it, since the incident had happened, it was better to call the regiment commander first to explain the situation.

However, no matter how the battalion commander called, the phone at the regiment headquarters could not be reached. The battalion commander's heart couldn't help but sink a little, and the battalion commander put down the phone tremblingly, and pointed at the herald with a trembling finger.

"Prepare a car right away, no! Get all the cars you can drive here in a quarter of an hour. In addition, we gather the guard class and do it immediately! ”

"Yes!"

After the herald left, the battalion commander couldn't help but pick up the bottle and pour another glass of wine, but he couldn't stop the trembling of his hands, poured a glass of wine, and when it was brought to his mouth, only half of it was left. The battalion commander drank wine, and finally scolded the regiment commander, you stinky rat! Dare to go secretly.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and there was a white belly in the eastern sky, yes, the sun was about to rise. After Wei Mou opened fire, the other companies asked the battalion commander about the situation in the communication, and after receiving the battalion commander's "own decision." After answering, they all chose to open fire. After all, Tianyu's army was less than five kilometers away from the bunker.

Although the other three company commanders were all curious about why the battalion commander, who had always liked to give orders forbade, was so casual today, as the artillery fire began, Tianyu's tank troops also began to attack the fortress. The battlefield, which was once extremely cold and silent, suddenly became intense, and the curiosity of other parties could not be allowed to think about it.

As the elite of the battle-hardened Heavenly Feather, the mechanized troops are simply very different in terms of combat state and non-combat state. It is well known that both bombs and anti-tank stacks buried in the ground can cause irreversible damage to tanks. For a spider tank, this damage is much smaller, but it cannot be completely eliminated.

In this regard, Tianyu's mechanized troops were very rough, only to see that the attack tanks in front slowed down the pace of attack, and the heavy spider tanks with a muffled motor sound in the back were directly sent to the front line, this kind of tank plus the weapons equipped with it, it was already close to 120 tons of weight, and every time it took a step forward, it would crush the ground by a few centimeters.

The effect of opening the way directly with such a heavy tank was immediate, which was more than twice as fast as opening the road with artillery fire, but his losses were also obvious.

The mines buried in the ground by Yuemo are not ordinary mines, this kind of mines are specially designed to deal with armored forces, and each mine weighs nearly one ton, which is a real source crystal bomb. The chassis of Tianyu's heavy tanks are all treated with special alloys, but there are too many bombs buried in Yuemo. And there is a limit to the endurance of heavy tanks, on average, one heavy tank will run aground for every five heavy bullets. In the face of these tanks blocking the way, Tianyu's follow-up troops also dealt with them very roughly, directly using another tank to push them to the side. This also illustrates the level of the Tianyu tank from the other side, after all, an engine can push a weight of 240 tons, which is very amazing.

The heavy tanks that were pushed away did not withdraw from the battlefield, but were used as a turret. Heavy tanks are loaded with 762mm armor-piercing shells, leaving aside defensive bunkers are easy, of course, non-exploding armor-piercing shells penetrate the fortress at a distance of five kilometers, which is tantamount to using a needle from a hundred meters away without any assistance, so difficult to thread with the naked eye. However, when there are many needles to a certain extent, there will always be some to wear. And, as long as one shot hits, the people in the fort will die.

"! What about our mobile units? ”

Facing the enemy tank troops who were almost in front of the fortress, Wei Mou finally couldn't help shouting, without the hedging of mechanized troops, it would be difficult to block the attack of tank troops by relying on the fortress alone.

"Report to the company commander! I can't get in touch with the chief! We...... We may have been abandoned......" the correspondent said with difficulty after numerous unsuccessful pleas for support.

"Impossible! This goes to the south, a horse and a flat river, there is no danger to defend at all. ”

Although Wei Mou didn't read much, he still understood the truth. Fang Jin didn't know how much energy it took the family to build this defense line, and the Yuemo Kingdom, which had already lost the Fergana District, directly faced Tianyu's mechanized troops in the hinterland of the plains. Now, if this line of defense is lost, the entire territory of Yuemo will probably be included in Tianyu's pocket.

"Continue to contact, the Tianyu Empire is technologically advanced, maybe we are blocking the signal."

Until the last moment, even if there are no reinforcements, Wei Mou will not compromise.

After occupying the favorable terrain, the assault team behind Tianyu had already begun to tentatively attack. Under the cover of the tanks, they crawled forward, and every few soldiers, one of them carried a strange weapon shaped like a long cane, the handle of which was a long, thin rubber-wrapped tube attached to a small backpack attached to it. This is a newly invented weapon of the Tianyu Empire, the Cloud Swallowing Bomb.

This cloud-swallowing bomb is not a real bomb, but a powdery substance that reacts violently with air, causing a sudden decrease in oxygen in the surrounding area and releasing a large amount of heat. This weapon is not even as useful in an open area as a normal source crystal bullet, but in a closed area, if there is no protection measure, the soldiers in the bunker disturbed by this bullet will not survive at all.

In order to better defend against the enemy's bullets, the bunker will be built very closed, which gives the cloud swallowing bullet room to play.

Without the commander's command, the Yuemo troops had no intention of retreating, and the battle was very fierce, but from the beginning, it was only two hours. Two hours is not enough to disperse the troops that Yuemo has mobilized for several months.

As an old man in the army, when the battalion commander could not be contacted, Wei Mou was temporarily recommended as the commander by the company commanders, and the acting battalion commander commanded the counterattack mission of this defense line.

"While the enemy is changing attack forces, the defense units immediately go to the underground bunkers to carry the stockpiled ammunition, and we may face an even more difficult offensive next."

Wei Mou, who has rich experience in actual combat, is commanding a group of companies to carry ammunition.

At this time, the air raid on Šibenik City was nearing the end, because Yuemo's air force had arrived, and without the support of ground troops, it was a little difficult to fight with Yuemo's ground and air forces at the same time. Therefore, from the moment the Yuemo Air Force appeared on the radar, Commander Tianyu ordered the fighter to be withdrawn.

Looking at the distant back of the local fighter, Luo Fei wiped off the general's hat and fell to the ground hatefully. I'm so angry, damn Tianyu!

"Marshal, the Air Force is already on standby, do you want to go after them? Please instruct! ”

As the temporary commander of the Yuemo Northern United Air Force, Bo Li wore a disheveled military uniform, dragged his bloated body, which could not fit in a fighter plane, and flew towards Luo with a twisted military salute. At this time, Bo Li was still sweating on his forehead, showing that this was not a cold sweat, but a real sweat that broke out from his fat body that could not withstand the short distance running. It's really embarrassing, it happened suddenly, and he was still asleep.

"It's important to protect the line of defense, and put the rest aside first."

Luo Fei only wants to defend the line of defense now, and under the huge attrition, he will force the Tianyu troops to retreat, so as to keep the family's foundation.

The first line of defense of Tianyu's attack was outside Šibenik, and before that, due to the sound of explosions from the air raid, the sound of empty artillery could not reach Luo Fei's ears, and the commander of the front line had already run away, so the news of the front line had not yet reached Luo Fei's ears.

"What is this sound? Is there already a fight on the front line? ”

Luo Fei, who realized it later, suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and the generals around Luo Fei also suddenly realized it, listening to the gradually heavy cannon sound, the senior generals were silent for a long time.

"I want news from the front! Go to the communications office now! Boli! Send out a reconnaissance plane now! ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Luo Fei really screamed, this is the foundation of the family! It must not be destroyed in his hands, in that case, Luo Fei Ke will become the sinner of the family, his Luo family has stood for hundreds of years, but it can't be passed on in his generation, won't he Luo Fei become a joke?

In less than a quarter of an hour, the battle report from the front line reached Luo Fei's desk. However, this extremely bad battle report made Luo Fei's heart a little angry.

"Those who escape from the battle will be dealt with by military law!"

A word by word came out of Luo Fei's mouth, making several generals standing at the desk break out in a cold sweat. As the head of the Luo family, Luo Fei is still very kind most of the time, even during the family's civil war, Luo Fei did not treat the soldiers so strictly, so the military discipline of the Luo family's army has always been very lax. However, today's Luo Fei, like a monster that suddenly awakened, roared at his subordinates.

"I will personally command this campaign!"

After speaking, Luo Fei issued several military orders and began to mobilize the troops of the Luo Family Legion to strengthen the defensive line.

It is worth mentioning that it is not only Luo Fei who is being attacked. The second defense zone in the north under the jurisdiction of Zhao Liang, the defense line with Ducheng as the node, was also attacked by the strength of a group army of Tianyu, with a scale of about 100,000, and it was also a mixed group army.
